The group of people in the Qin Corporation did not dare to say anything.

The few of them looked at one another for some time until a shareholder finally said, “If… if it’s really Miss Qin, it’s actually not that surprising…”

After all, Qin Ran was the only one who pa.s.sed the heir a.s.sessment after so many years.

“Not that surprising?” Minister Qin looked at him as if he was joking.

The shareholder fell silent.

Everyone in the office was baffled, and no one could calm down.

“Call Sixth Master and let him know.” Minister Qin reacted quickly, took out his phone, and said solemnly, “Let’s not be happy too soon. After all, Miss Qin didn’t acknowledge her ancestors and roots, but Old Master still regarded her highly.”

Who didn’t know that Qin Ran was the new star in the physics world now? Whether she could be the successor of the Research Inst.i.tute, the old researchers would definitely not let her transfer to another industry.

After all, he heard the grudge in Lu Zhixin’s voice…

However, he really felt that Qin Ran was the beacon of hope for the Qin family.

“A person like this will only appear in the Qin family once in a blue moon.” A shareholder looked at Butler Qin and calmed down. “Can you talk to Sixth Master about this problem about her physics…”

It was truly a waste of her computing talent.

Butler Qin used to work for Qin Xiuchen, so he was well versed in the IT industry.

Hearing what they said, he gained some clarity and paused for a moment.

Looking at Minister Qin and the two shareholders’ hopeful eyes, he shook his head. “Sixth Master and Second Master feel guilty towards her and will not mention this to her. She also has no desire to return to the Qin family, especially since Elder Xu is with the Yunguang Consortium. Why do you think she will remain in the Qin family?”

“If she can perform well in the physics world, Second Master and I will be very happy.” Butler Qin smiled and looked out the window.

When he first met Qin Ran at Beijing University, he felt that she had the same demeanor as Old Master.

The Qin family had been abandoned by several major inst.i.tutes for years, and Butler Qin wondered when a child of the Qin family would be able to join a physics laboratory or research inst.i.tute by his own caliber.

After about half a year, he watched as Qin Ran joined a physics laboratory and became the heir of the Research Inst.i.tute.

The Qin family didn’t back her.

Hearing what Butler Qin said, the others paused.

“The capital’s current situation is very complicated, and the Qin family has no place to say anything.” Butler Qin’s expression was dark. “Beijing really likes to be involved in messy situations…”

Unfortunately, Old Master Qin was not here. If he was in his prime, Qin Ran wouldn’t have such a difficult journey…

…

At the Ouyang family.

Ouyang Wei was currently in the living room.

Many people in the Ouyang family were listening to her. She sat elegantly and leisurely while holding a teacup as she listened to the pouring of tea.

“Miss.” Someone hurriedly entered from outside.

Ouyang Wei looked up and slightly frowned. Her posture remained graceful as she asked, “Why are you in such a hurry?”

“Something happened at Qin Hanqiu’s side!” said the middle-aged man as he bowed.

“Qin Hanqiu?” Ouyang Wei put down the teacup casually and remembered that this was Qin Ran’s father, so she said indifferently, “What is it? Is he still struggling?”

Even if the entire Qin family united, she was still able to decide the outcome.

The Ouyang family was able to drag the Qin family down from the four major families back in the day, and it was nothing much to deal with Qin Hanqiu alone.

Her actions were just a warning to Qin Ran.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Wei couldn’t help but sneer.

“Miss Leng’s project can’t go on anymore. Qin Hanqiu and the others sought the help of the Yunguang Consortium!” The middle-aged man shook his head and knelt on one knee. “The Yunguang Consortium is the leader in the IT industry in Asia. The Qin family was able to sign a contract with them and even managed to get a master to personally sign it. With them there, it’s impossible to stabilize Fourth Master Qin’s status in the Qin family anymore, let alone touch Qin Hanqiu!”

The Ouyang family was capable, and many outstanding individuals were loyal to Ouyang Wei.

But…

Going against the IT leader Yunguang Consortium and trying to place pressure on it? That was basically unrealistic.

The IT world had its own rules.

In this situation, it would be terribly difficult to kick Qin Hanqiu down.

“Bam—”

After hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Ouyang Wei smashed her teacup.

She held the table and stood up with a dark expression. “Useless!”

Everyone in the Ouyang family lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything.

“Wei Wei, you said that the Qin family would not…” The head of the Ouyang family was also horrified.

It was similar to how shocked Old Master Qin was in the past.

This all happened after Qin Ran joined the Qin family.

If the Qin family was going to rebuild itself, the Ouyang family’s position in Beijing would be lost.

Ouyang Wei finally sat down again, and a servant gave her another cup of tea. She held it in her hand and tried to calm down. “No way. The Qin family will not rise again. This time, it’s not only the forces in Beijing that are partic.i.p.ating, and as for Qin Ran…”

“Whose power is helping her? Elder Xu’s?” Ouyang Wei took a sip of tea and suppressed the anger in her eyes.

Hearing that, her subordinate looked up. “Maybe it’s the Yunguang Consortium?”

“Yunguang Consortium? That ruthless organization would defend her?” Ouyang Wei clutched her teacup and suddenly looked up. “I want to see if it’s really Elder Xu who lent her his power.”

“You want to see?” Ouyang Wei’s father was startled. “Wei Wei, you can’t do that. The Xu family has connections with Continent M now!”
